Garry Bennett - "Mark's Big Burp Ale". A lamp with a 3-way touch switch - i.e. you touch the nail and the lamp goes on, with three levels of brightness.The materials in the lamp are: Mark Sfirri turning, pewter casting, beads, nail, paint, Douglas fir, and lamp parts. The title is in reference to Mark's turning utilized in the lamp, as well as the 'beer bottles' that Mark has been known to turn from time to time. The Sfirri turning in the piece is one of his multi-axis turning scraps that he sent to Garry when Garry was making his 'twirling' series. The back of the turning, which is hard to see in the picture, is concave, while the front is convex. It measures 14" H x 7" W x 7" D.
